I do sort of wish western anime fans would analyze anime and manga from a framework of japanese historical and cultural context. Specifically a lot of works from the 90s being influenced by the general aimlessness and ennui that a lot of people were experiencing due to the burst in the bubble economy and the national trauma caused by the sarin terrorist attack. I think in interacting with media that’s not local to our sociocultural/sociopolitical sphere it’s easy to forget that it’s influenced and shaped by the same kinds of factors that influence media within our own cultural dome and there ends up being this baseline misalignment of perception between the causative elements of a narrative and viewer interpretation of those elements. It’s a form of death of the author that i think, in some measure, hinders our ability to fully understand/come to terms with creator intent and the full scope of a work’s merits
#exilley's diary#this is about utena btw like. yeah its feminist and a coming of age horror story but also#it was in part ikuhara’s response to the changes he observed in the corporate anime industry and an attempt to subvert those trends#it doesnt really help that i feel certain aspects of the show are filtered through translation and certain cultural emphasises are lost#like for instance. the blood type symbolism. or wakaba’s gestures with making packed lunches#theyre incredibly japanese expressions of conventional gender roles that non-japanese audiences might not fully resonate with

was thinking abt how anya sleeps by the polle statue. which is motion activated to start talking.
+ i like drawing polle as a Character
#now originally i drew this under the same kind of premise as the animatic i did#in that it Is in reality just a statue but is. subconsciously treated as alive and as it’s cartoon self? if that makes sense#but i was thinking abt what if polle Was alive. a toon put on the tulpar as a shitty morale boosting animal that Isn’t you friend#but i worry this would change too much abt the story. i wouldn’t want to add too much levity/fluff#mouthwashing#the art gallery#polle being a toon instead of a statue kinda cheapens it’s effect probably#like i think it worked In The Little Bit like in the animatic. but not through the whole game#plus also it’d probably really muddy his like. symbolism. of like thr company and the baby#so i do have a couple more doodles but (shrugs worriedly)

I just noticed when Ozzie appears behind Fizz, the initial explosion shows his sigil for exactly ONE frame (replacing Mammon's sigil we've seen plastered throughout the episode). I just thought it was a neat little detail, Asmodeus essentially summoned himself in that moment.

Actually I really like that Percy is Thalia's look-alike in the books with their matching black hair and green eyes and the ichor of such powerful gods running through their veins and their mirrored personalities. I like that Annabeth and Luke both looked at Percy and saw Thalia and I love thinking about what a sucker punch Percy must have felt like to the both of them.
#riordanverse#percy jackson#thalia grace#pjo#percy jackson series#annabeth chase#luke castellan#is rick going to forget and fuck up his own symbolism? tune in next year or whenever the fucking show comes out#he already did it once in the books when he forgot Thalia's eye color and changed it to blue#annabeth thought he was a child of zeus despite all evidence to the contrary because percy looks like thalia

ok so did anyone else jump at the lore potential and imagery and symbolism of joel walking down a long narrow corridor to a red door he created to end his series completely of his own volition only for the trap to not work and embarrass him in front of the spectators who were all watching at the time btw. so he just had to go off and kill himself with ender pearl spam. anyone else
#like ok. symbolism cancelled i guess#but also it was so insanely fucking funny like joel never change oh my god#bonus points if you are also a tma fan and started thinking about the spiral. you get it. not anymore though hashtag failwizard#like thats sooooo embarrassing i love it. imagine winning but youre so cringefail you cant even kill yourself with your own trap so you just#have to start literally throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks (will kill you)#wild life spoilers#trafficblr#elfy talks#life series#life series spoilers#life series smp#smallishbeans#joel smallishbeans#wild life#wild life smp#mcyt

the scene where jinx reads out the letter to vi is so so so important.
vi's idolised vander her entire life. he's her shining example of what to do, her golden heart, everything she was supposed to be and symbolise. and since his passing, it's been nothing but clawing her way back to his image. to his final words, to all of it.
only for jinx to take up that mantle. for vi's lurching attempts to make things right landing her as an enforcer on the other side of the river. it's why vi, despite not trusting jinx an inch, still goes with her to find vander. because vander was everything to vi, and if she can find him and make that right then maybe things would be okay. in everything else, her stinging failures and misery and loneliness, maybe saving vander would save herself too.
and then she finds the letter. the letter from vander to silco - silco, who vi sees as everything that went wrong. all the bad awful shit, why she lost powder, why she lost jinx. the reason why she went after her sister to try and stop (kill) her. and the letter is asking silco for forgiveness. forgiveness. and it all clicks into place.
because if vander, good and right vander, wanted to forgive silco, then whats stopping vi from forgiving jinx?
#so they make me crazy#if u cldnt tell#jinx#vi#vander#silco#arcane#arcane season 2#theres also some delicious symbolism in the fact jinx immediately sees vanders monsterous form and accepts him#because. they're the same arent they?#whereas vi just cant swallow that change

On your most recent From the Couch post... is that a dragon tattoo I see poking out of Zuko's collar? ...................may we see more of it?
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/020654d2d9aafe2ef78337748abde3a2/827411c5d85ea609-80/s540x810/b09f05059574955a8c2c0d8bc898037e99f4ac11.jpg)
You may see all of it.

So he got them during a—let's say—crossroads of destiny *wink wink*#Those are his shame tattoos. He's terribly embarrassed by them so the Gaang tease him about them. (He's secretly very proud of them tho)#It's all about the duality inherent to fire (and himself!) as well as protection.#The red dragon has his back at all times. It protects Zuko from his past—from everything that he has left behind and is walking away from.#The Blue dragon guards him front unknown threats. It curls over his left arm (his most vulnerable side) and rests its head over Zuko's heart#It's all very symbolic#Zuko loves his tattoos but is also embarrassed and ashamed of how he got them. He was in a very bad place at the time.#If he got the chance to get his tattoos done *now*—he probably wouldn't do it.#He wouldn't change a thing tho. They're part of who he is. A reminder of who he was.#Also they're kinda hot#So that helps#Also...I forgot to draw the blue dragon's body on the back of his shoulder so... Oops?#Let us all ignore that and focus on the sun/starbust tattoo on his chest instead#the gaang

Do you think that Vaugardians would make murals and statues of the saviors, especially of Mirabelle?? Idk but I’ve been thinking about how Vaugarde would idolize and immortalize the saviors and how there’d be reminders of their quest/victory all over the country. And how years down the line they would become like a legend told through stories and art
Anyway, black and white version under the cut
#also included a bit of flower symbolism cause I’m insane and love flowers#daffodils symbolize rebirth and new beginnings#which I felt fit mirabelle as a housemaiden of change and for bringing life back to a frozen vaugarde! :D#really showing off my art nouveau vaugarde hc where vaugardian art is highly inspired by art nouveau#maybe this is just me being biased bc I adore art nouveau but I feel like the house of change is kinda art nouveau with its circles#and flowy shape idk but I love it#isat#in stars and time#in stars and time fanart#isat fanart#isat mirabelle#my art

Dressing up as a different person for Halloween sounds like something that would be a big hit in the land of change!
(I love the visual of Bonnie, Siffrin, Mirabelle, Isabeau, and Odile linking arms and singing We’re Off To See The Wizard)
halloween in vaugarde... i love the idea that halloween would be just another holiday in the long list of change holidays thats all about wearing masks and facades.
#isat#in stars and time#instead of a spooky orientated holiday its a holiday all about masks and costumes#like the change god and one of the symbols being theater masks so youre encouraged to pick a costume based on an emotion you want to embrac#a very interpretive and fun way of guessing what someones feeling that day#take this idea with wizard of oz how you will#the draws#ALSO THE MOST IMPORTANT SIFFRIN DESIGN EDIT: he has flowers and straw and foliage on his hat now :>
